Hi everybody!
I’m applying this cycle, and I wanted to know your opinion on what schools I should consider. I am obviously going to do my own research as well, but I would like to get a general idea from you guys, who have had years of experience answering questions like these. I will be applying to all the Texas schools, as I am a resident. So, I was hoping you guys could help me with schools that are outside of Texas. (I want to apply to 6-8 besides the Texas schools). I’d really appreciate it, if you could look at my info. I apologize in advance if we have a thread about this/similar to this subject, and I’ve missed it.
Overall GPA: 3.96
Science GPA and Bio-Chem-Physics GPA: very similar to overall
DAT score: AA 22, TS 23, Bio 22, Gen chem 22, ochem 25, RC 22, QR 21, PAT 18
Extracurriculars: ~250 hours of ongoing volunteering; plenty of leadership positions, and 3 non-academic awards. NO research experience, however.
Shadowing hours: general dentistry for 200 hours; I’m shadowing specialists this summer to see if I’m interested in any in particular.
Letters of rec: a committee letter, which includes five letters total-all are strong I would say.
Miscellaneous: I plan on submitting my TMDSAS around May 25th and AADSAS as soon as I can submit it (June 5th). I am also interested in specializing as of now, which is why I’m shadowing those specialists during the summer. I am also 20 if it matters at all.
Your input is much appreciated!
